I’m Confused

February 02, 2017 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Okay, I’m as confused as a billy goat on Astroturf.

Are we going to war with Mexico, Iran, Australia, or UC Berkley?

I suppose it’s only fair that Trump told President Peña Nieto that he has “bad hombres” in his country because in Mexico they say we have El Presidente del Inferno.

And I have to tell you that it takes a real special kind of goofy to get into a fight with the Prime Minister of Australia.  Somebody show Trump a map so he can see that China is an obvious trading partner with them. And they need stuff. Shuddup.

I’m guess I’m glad we put Iran on notice. I dunno, though, because I have no idea what “on notice” means. Are we gonna make them cry us a river or something?

And we’re going to cut federal funding to UC Berkley because after hours of peaceful demonstrations some damfool guys showed up and got violent?

 

We don’t even know who these guys are.  They may be Trump supporters trying to cause trouble.  Look, the speaker they were protesting, Breitbart editor Milo Yiannopoulos, has been banned from Twitter for cyber-bullying.  Not even Trump has been banned from Twitter for cyber-bullying.

Look, you don’t punish a whole institution for the actions of a few.  I hope Iran, Mexico, and Australia know that, too.

I’ve had a report that some comments aren’t being posted.  Is this happening to anyone else?

Remember – we had this problem before but we thought we got it fixed.  Apparently not.  Let me know if it’s happening to you.

Warning: if you cussed too much, I probably did delete your comment.

 

I Cannot Help Myself. I Want To Be a Good Person, But … Oh Hell, Just Look at This.

February is Donald Trump History Month Because He is More Oppressed Than Anyone. Ever.

February 01, 2017 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

Up until I read Donald Trump’s remarks kicking off Black History Month, I did not feel sick like I do now.  He spent the whole speech talking about himself and how persecuted he is. The only thing he could say about Dr. Martin Luther King is that he’s “unique” and someone said he took King’s statue out of his office and they were wrong, wrong, wrong. Poor Donald.

He has got to quit whining. I can’t take it. I just can’t. I will pay him twenty dollars cash American money to stop whining for an hour so everybody can catch their breath.

He did offer this tidbit about actual black history:

Frederick Douglass is an example of somebody who’s done an amazing job and is being recognized more and more, I noticed.

He does not know who Frederick Douglass is. He does not. And he thinks Douglass is still alive and is competing for Nielsen ratings.

Holy damn cow, y’all.

 

 

 

I Love Yew, Texas, And Sun City Democrats

I do. I love this bunch of butt-kicking, loud-mouthed, wine-drinking old farts and fartettes up in Williamson County. They kick up more dust than Noah’s flood could settle.  I’ve been up to speak to them before and had a ball.

Take this community newspaper announcement.

 

Well played, Sun City Democrats, well played.

Thanks to Arden and Larry for the heads up.

Keep Marching

Well, lookie at this:  The little snowflakes have covered Harley-Davidson.

A presidential visit to a Harley Davidson factory in Milwaukee, Wisconsin has been canceled because the company was worried about the fallout from protesters for hosting the toxic Trump.

CNN reported, “President Donald Trump will not head to Milwaukee for a previously scheduled visit of a Harley Davidson factory after the company decided it wasn’t comfortable hosting him amid planned protests, an administration official said Tuesday…It was the threat of protests, and not Trump’s planned signing of executive orders, that made Harley Davidson uncomfortable, the official said.”

The protests are working because Harley-Davidson went out of their way to say they didn’t disagree with Trump’s policy. So, if we can’t make them smart, at least we can make them scared of their bottom line.

And this morning I got some restored faith in my fellow Americans.  Reuters just released a poll —

Imposing a temporary travel ban on citizens from seven Muslim countries, President Donald Trump said the move would help protect the United States from terrorism. But less than one-third of Americans believe the move makes them “more safe,” according to a Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll released on Tuesday.

So, Trump has a whole 30% of Americans behind him. I can live with that.

Oh yeah, there’s one other poll this morning I kinda like. Chris Christie approval rating dropped to 17%.
